Breakfast Bread: Pan de Bono at La Fonda Antioqueña

One of my breakfast favorites are the big, puffy cheese breads known as pan de bono at the Colombian stalwart, La Fonda Antioqueña on Melrose. Similar to Brazilian pao de queijo, but larger, pan de bono have the same chewy, cheese texture as the Brazilian cheese breads. The breads come out of the oven around 11:00 a.m. and are available throughout the day. They reheat beautifully in a conventional oven, so I always take a few home for the next day.
